FOREWORD 

When the History Committee of the 139th Infantry put the pro- 
duction of this book into the hands of the Guard Pubhshing Company 
early in September, 1919, that company arranged with me to write it. 
-Many difficuhies have arisen in the collection of data, principally 
through my inability to obtain the regimental records. 

Officers and men of the regiment have resumed their civilian pur- 
suits and some of them have wandered far afield since they were dis- 
charged from the army, so far indeed that letters and telegrams are 
unanswered. The Regimental History, which would have been of 
great assistance, has not been found. Such officers and men as I 
have been able to get in touch with have been most kind and helpful, 
and whatever value the book has is due to them. 

I am fully aware that the narrative given here does not do jus- 
tice to the fine regiment with which it deals, but no book could do 
that. The great bravery of these men, the grim persistence, the for- 
titude in the face of great odds, have made for them a fame which 
should live forever. 

My poor words cannot add to their glory. All I can hope to do 
is briefly to tell their story and off'er a book which will preserve the 
pictures of these gallant men in the uniforms they wore with so much 
honor on the fields of France.

A COMPANY 

ONE of the firm convictions of natives of Missouri and Kansas used 
to be that the citizens of the other state were a bad lot. This 
impression came down from the days when we Missourians, out of 
the goodness of our hearts, used to go over into Kansas and help them 
hold their elections. Even before Kansas was a state, Missourians 
were trying to lead them onward and upward to better things. We 
took them by the hand, led them to the ballot box, showed them how 
to vote, told them which way to vote, voted ourselves to give them the 
benefit of our example. Often we voted for them when they were 
backward or timorous. Did they appreciate it? They did not. They 
called us many thing-s that were not pleasant to listen to. We called 
them things which sounded even worse. Twenty yeare ago the boys 
in any respectable Missouri school had a bitter contempt for Kansas 
and its people. In my own family there was an uncle who moved to 
Kansas and bought a farm. We spoke in low tones of him in the 
family circle afterward. 

Now all that feeling has passed away. The prejudice and in- 
tolerance of Civil War days are forgotten. The only rivalry is in the 
tilt yards of trade, and the only bitterness is upon the foot-ball field. 
The last vestige of this old rancor was swept away by regiments 
such as the 139th Infantry of the United States Army. This regi- 
ment was made up of the 4th Missouri Infantry and the 3rd 
Kansas Infantry, two National Guard outfits of enduring fame. They 
were united soon after they were called to the colors, they were 
trained as one unit. By the time they were sent to France, all state 
lines had been lost. In France thev worked and learned and trained

and fought as one man. The 139th fnfantry came out of the Argonne 
with its bloody head held high in air. No prouder outfit ever stepped 
than the ragged band which trailed back to Somaisne with the guns 
roaring behind it and the relieving troops holding the position the 
regiment had conquered in the valley of the Aire. 

To start this story properly and to give the reader an accurate 
conception of the men and traditions that made this regiment, it is 
best to look over the records of the two regiments which were joined 
to make the One Hundred Thirty-ninth. 

The first 3rd Kansas \'olunteers were recruited by Senator 
James H. Lane in the summer of 1861. It was an infantry regiment 
with calvary and artillery companies. Certain companies of this 
3rd Regiment were on active duty from 1861 to 1864. In October, 
1864, General Sterling Price of the Confederate Army crossed the 
Kan.sas border from Missouri, and threatened to raid the state. 
Nearly all of the 3rd Regiment including the Battery and Com- 
panies O and P took part in the opposition to General Price. 

In 1884 there was a 3rd Kansas National Guard Regiment, and 
it existed until the outbreak of the Spanish-American War in 1898. 
After the vSpanish-American War, plans for re-organization of the 
National Guard provided for only two regiments of infantry, and so 
from 1898 until 1917 there was no 3rd Kansas Infantry of the 
National Guard. As soon as permission was given by the Federal 
Government in 1917, Brigadier General Charles I. Martin commenced 
the organization of a unit to be known as the 3rd Kansas Infantry.

The 1st Kansas Infantry was, generally speaking, in the east- 
ern part of the state, and the 2nd Kansas Infantry was in the 
western part, but both were pretty well scattered. The 3rd Regi- 
ment was raised without regard to geography, and came from that 
territory which would be covered by a triangle drawn from Leaven- 
worth to Downs to Eldorado. 

The conditions under which the regiment was raised made it 
possible to assign to companies officers who came from towns other 
than those in which the companies were raised. General Martin him- 
self selected the officers of the regiment, and it had an excellent per- 
sonnel. 

The new regiment was without equipment other than that sup- 
plied by the local committee. It was called into Federal service Au- 
gust 5, 1917 and was sent to Doniphan on September 26, 1917. H 
Company did not go to Doniphan on that date as it was quarantined 
because of sickness among the men. The affairs of the regiment 
were administered from Topeka from August 5. to September 26. 

The men of this new 3rd Infantry Regiment of the Kansas 
National Guard were not the descendants of the old 3rd Kansas 
regiments, and there were no traditions to connect the new regiment 
with the old ones, but they were husky young Kansans of the same 
breed and from the same land that the men of the other 3rd Kansas 
regiments had been. 

The 4th Missouri Infantry was organized March i, 1891. It 
was composed of seven companies and Colonel J- A. Arbuthnot was

its first commander. It was located generally in the northern part of 
the state, and many towns have been represented in its organization. 
The forming and nnistering-out of companies have gone on steadily 
since that time. 

Concerning the early life of the regiment Col. William E. String- 
fellow says : 

"In those days, there was no state appropriation for the main- 
tenance of the companies. Equipment was issued. The companies 
had to be maintained by the officers and men. Some small amount 
in dues was paid by each member and the officers had to dig up to 
supply the deficiencies. We held our annual encampments much in 
the manner that a street carnival is held. We approached the various 
towns in north and northwest Missouri of suitable size to be inter- 
ested, and saw what they would allow us in the way of camping- 
grounds, wood and water, and anything else we might get, including 
a percentage of the receipts of a sham battlq, which usually was 
given as the principal means of obtaining any ready cash. The 
officers made up the deficiency. 

"From the date of my acquaintance with the regiment, which 
was practicallv at the beginning of its organization, there has been a 
high degree of military spirit and willingness to serve on the part of 
a nucleus, which spirit has been maintained until now, and it is my 
sincere belief that a part of the splendid spirit shown by the One 
Hundred Thirty-ninth in France was due to the esprit de corps 
created in the early days and maintained until now." 

The regiment volunteered for service in the Spanish-American

War, was mustered into Federal service May i6, 1898, and was mobi- 
lized at Jefferson Barracks. On May 25, it moved to Camp Alger, 
Pennsylvania, where it was assigned to the 2nd Brigade of the 2nd 
Division of the 2nd Army Corps. It was brigaded with the 4th Penn- 
sylvania and the 6th Blinois. On Aug'ust 20, 1898 it moved to Camp 
Meade, Pennsylvania and in November moved to Greenville, South 
Carolina. It was discharged from Federal service at Camp Weather- 
ill, South Carolina, February 10, 1899. 

The regiment continued its course of changes in personnel and 
location and maintained its existence without a break up to June 23, 
1916, when it reported at Nevada, under the order of the President 
for duty on the Mexican border. On July 4, 1916, it departed for 
Laredo, in three special trains. It was commanded by Col. John D. 
McNeely. On the Mexican border it had an interesting tour of duty 
until February 21, 1917, when it moved to Ft. Riley, Kansas. It was 
formally released from Federal service February 28, 1917. 

The regiment was reviewed by General Funston who praised it 
highly for its soldierly bearing and discipline. Just before it left 
the border two companies, A of Tarkio and B of Caruthersville, made 
a remarkable hike. These companies were stationed at San Ygnacio, 
45 miles from regimental headquarters at Laredo. Under command 
of Major Clay C. Macdonald they left San Ygnacio at 5 minutes to 
3 in the afternoon and marched to headquarters. The roads were 
narrow, rocky and sandy, and it was in the dark of the moon, but 
they reached their destination the next morning at 7 o'clock. They 
lost but two men to the ambulance. The 45 miles were made in 16

hours, or leaving out the rest for supper and the 5 and 10 minute 
rest periods on the march, a marching time of 13 hours. The last 
12 miles of the march was covered in 3 hours and 5 minutes. Major 
Macdonald was the first oificer inducted into Federal service in May, 
1917, and the only officer who served with the regiment in the Span- 
ish War, on the Mexican border and in France. 

Among its officers on the border were Major Macdonald, com- 
manding the 1st Battalion; Captain Williamson, commanding D 
Company; Major James E. Rieger, commanding the 2nd Battal- 
ion; Captain Wilson, commanding G Company; Captain McQueen, 
commanding H Company and Major Stepp, commanding the 3rd Bat- 
talion. We shall hear of these men again in France. 

Major Ralph Ramer who served with the South Carolina troops 
in the world war, Major Donald Bonfoey who served on the Border 
and in France, and Captain Donald Duncan of the Marines, who fell 
in battle near Chateau Thierry, all had their training with the old 
Fourth Missouri. 

. When the 139th Regiment, U. S. Infantry was formed, A Com- 
pany was made by joining A Company of the 3rd Kansas and A Com- 
pany of the 4th Missouri. The ranking Captain took command of 
the company. Since the Kansas regiment had been newly organized, 
most of the regimental and company commands went to Missouri 
officers for the time being. Disi)laced officers were attached, or were 
sent to the Depot Brigade. Colonel AIcNeely commanded the regi- 
ment and to assist, advise and instruct him there was a procession of 
regular armv officers, none of whom stayed long with the regiment.

A C(.)MPAXV 

All through the training- period at Camp Doniphan, a dreary and 
unrelieved spell of work, officers and men were upheld by the thought 
that much good would come out of it. Incidents and events at the 
time seemed to have great importance, but they are now virtually 
forgotten. It was the same with the journey to the Atlantic sea- 
board, the exciting voyage to England and thence to France. Things 
that made the greatest impression then have passed out of the mem- 
ory, or are at best but faint wisps of recollections. 

Even the work with the British in the north of France, when the 
regiment was near to the battle lines, and the later days in the 
\"osges, when the troops went into the trenches, are dim now. 

Nearly all of these things have been thrown into memory's dis- 
card by the great days of the Argonne. Trench raids, patrols in No- 
Man's land, excursions to repair barbed wire entanglements were 
great events in the Vosges and they all did have an important bearing 
on the future fitness of the regiment, but the things that we thought 
always would be high-lights in our recollection became very dim 
after five days of battle in the valley of the Aire. 

During the stay in the Vosges, Lieutenant Thomas Hopkins lost 
his life. The 137th Infantry, which joined up with the 139th Infan- 
try in the trenches, made a trench raid on the morning of July 20. 
A wounded soldier was caught in the wire. Lieutenant Hopkins saw 
this man's predicament from his post and though he had nothing to 
do with the raid, went to aid the wounded man. In doing so he 
passed unhurt through an enemv barrage, but in assisting the

Argonne-Meuse offensive with such skill and daring that his troops made the farthest ad- 
vance accomplished by the 35th Division. He was promoted to Colonel for his work in bat- 
tle. He was a hard taskmaster on the drill ground, but won the love of his regiment by his 
valor on the field, ami his untiring devotion to his men.

wounded. 

The Distiui^uished Service Cross and the Croix de Guerre were 
both awarded to Lieutenant Hopkins and an American Legion Post 
in his home in Wichita, Kansas has been named for him. 

The regiment also lost Captain Alexander M. Ellett in the 
Vosges. He was commanding I Company and had done, excellent 
work in rounding the company into shape. Near Amiens in the spring, 
his company won first place in the competitive drill within the bat- 
talion and one of his platoons won tirst place in the competition 
among platoons. His company in the Vosges occupied the town of 
Metzerall. The explosion of a hand-grenade while he was inspecting- 
an intermediate line of defense caused wounds from which Captain 
Ellett died before reaching the hospital. 

Captain Charles H. Browne, who had commanded H Company 
of the 3rd Kansas and later E Company of the One Hundred 
Thirty-ninth and who had done such good work in Alsace was sent 
back home as an instructor August 11. He became a Major and 
while he never saw the Argonne, the work he had done in training 
the men lived after him on that field. 

Colonel McNeeley, who had commanded the regiment at Doni- 
phan was relieved after several weeks in France. He was promoted 
to a corps job and did not see anj^ further service with the One Hun- 
dred Thirty-ninth. But I am sure he would have forgone the promo- 
tion for the privilege of staying with his outfit.

The 139th Infantry was 3208 men and 79 officers strong on Sep- 
tember 25, the day before the Argonne offensive opened. Lieutenant- 
Colonel Carl L. Ristine was in command. It had been the intention 
to have Colonel Americus Mitchell lead the regiment, but he arrived 
late. The regiment, with the One liimdred Fortieth, formed the 70th 
Brigade. The attack was made by the 69th Brigade, with the 137th 
Regiment on the left half of the divisional front. The 139th Regi- 
ment advanced behind the One Hundred Thirty-seventh. While 
the forward regiments, the One Hundred Thirty-seventh and One 
Hundred Thirty-eighth, were becoming tangled and mixed because 
of the fighting in the fog, Ristine succeeded in keeping his regiment 
clear and in order. The regiment moved forward in colunms of bat- 
talions with companies and platoons in staggard formation. As the 
C)ne Hundred Thirty-ninth approached the defenses of Varennes, it 
found the One Hundred Thirty-seventh was immediately in front of 
it and held up by the opposition. The One Hundred Thirty-ninth dug 
in, as there was considerable artillery fire and waited. It was not 
long before the reserve battalion of the One Hundred Thirty-seventh 
came up behind the One Hundred Thirtv-ninth. This battalion had 
been in some way passed by the One Hundred Thirty-ninth in the ad- 
vance. Ristine waited two hours, then went forward and asked Colo- 
nel Hamilton, commanding the One Hundred Thirty-seventh, what 
delayed his advance. Colonel Hamilton's regiment had suft'ered from 
inter-mingling and mixture of troops and when it was stopped by the 
\^arennes defenses and had lain for some time under the heavv and

concentrated fire upon it. the Colonel was doubtful whothor or not he 
could make headway against the enemy position. 

Ristine returned to his regiment and sent a runner to the Bri- 
gade Connnander, telling him of the condition of the One Hundred 
Thirty-seventh and asking permission to take the One Hundred 
Thirtv-ninth forward and continue the fight. He received no answer 
to that message or to another similar one which he sent afterwards. 
The One Hundred Thirty-ninth was beginning to suffer from the 
bombardment and Ristine feared that the morale of his outfit would 
go down if he held them inactive any longer. Being unable to get any 
answer from his Brigade Commander he put his regiment in forma- 
tion and went forward. The order was: Scouts, a skirmish line, the 
3rd Battalion, ist Battalion, 2nd Battalion. 

The most of the town of Varennes lies across the River Aire 
from the 35th Division's sector. On our bank of the river there were 
a good number of houses and a ruined church. All of these are situ- 
ated in the low and flat hollow places under the river bank. The hills 
around run to the right like the rim of a cup. Ristine did not attack 
frontally, but took his command around the hills with very little 
damage to the regiment and as soon as the Germans found him in 
their rear, they evacuated the position. There was not much stiff 
fighting. He merely "pinched out" the place. 

The regiment had proceeded possibly a kilometer further, when 
the front line slowed up. Ristine, again becoming concerned about 
the morale of his outfit, told Maior Stepp to take command of the

regimc'iil while he went forward and look command of the skirmish 
Hne. lie had advanced about 200 meters when a runner came to him 
and said that a major over on his right vv^anted assistance. Ristine 
moved to the right and there found the galkint Rieger with about 100 
men, trying to breach the Hne. After cleaning up A'auquois Hill and 
the Rois de Rossignol, he had come up to the right of the regiment and 
finding the One Hundred Thirty-seventh stopped had tried to drive a 
wedge through the enemy line to relieve the One Hundred Thirty 
seventh. He had driven a wedge into it, Init with his small command 
also had been stopped and was fighting desperately when Ristine's 
advance came to his assistance. Ristine put Rieger in command of 
the right wing and told him to push on towards V'ery. 

Ristine who had strengthened his skirmish line, drove straight 
ahead destroying everything before him and finally reached a point 
about a kilometer and a half south of Charpentry, where he ran into 
a verv heavy enfilading fire. He told his detachment to dig in and 
wait for the regiment to come up. When the regiment failed to ap- 
pear, Ristine left his skirmish line, holding the front, and went back 
to the regiment. There he learned Major Stepp had been killed and 
the regiment had not moved. 1 le reformed his command in a column 
of battalions and took the regiment forward and the men dug in just 
back of the skirmish line at nightfall. 

Rieger had volunteered for the mopping up of A^auquois Hill and 
the Bois de Rossignol. Captains Wilson and McQueen had matched 
coins for the i)rivilege. AVilsou with two conipaiu'es had attended

to the \'au(|Uois job, while ^iTcOueen had ke])t his place in the regi- 
mental organization. It was on the slopes of ^'auquois Hill that 
Lieutenant Donald jM. ATacdonald was killed, valorously leading his 
men over the net work of enemy defenses. 

Writing- to Mrs. Stepp, Chaplain Daniel Lane thus described 
Major Stepp's death : 

"It was just at 3 o'clock in the afternocm of this first day of the 
engagement when our beloved Major fell. We were emerging from 
the vallev bv the German cemeterv on the Eastern suburbs of Va- 
rennes, w'alking up the narrow gauge raihvay turning to the right and 
walking up to the forks of the Cheppv-^"arennes and Charpentry 
roads and mounted to the summit of the opposite hill. There had 
been a hush unnatural, as we reached the summit overlooking the 
vallev in which these devastated towns lav. It was broken by the 
storm wdiich burst furiously upon us. I was carr}'ing my Major's 
Musette bag and w^as a few steps in advance when the enemy's fire 
swept the heights. The last picture I have of your dear brave hus- 
band is the best. It better reveals the unselfish, brave warrior that 
he was. Thinking not of himself at all he stood fearless! v and 
wheeled about to order his men to stay below when a bullet hit its 
mark and he fell, pierced through the brain without an instant's 
pain, save that last thous^ht for the welfare of his men." 

Major Samuel G. Clarke was in command of the ist Battalion 
on the evenino- of September 2^. The ist Battalion, less C Com- 
panv which had been detailed for dutv at Neuvilly. left the woods

with tlic regiment and niarehed to the ]'inni)ing vft place. Evervbudy 
got a Httle sleep except the scouts, who were busy all night locating 
the best passages of the river. After receiving the reports of the 
scouts it was decided to take the whole regiment over the railroad 
crossing. The ist Battalion crossed immediately behind the Third 
and took position 500 meters in the rear of the Third early on the 
morning of Sept. 26. When the advance began, at 5:30 a.m., it was 
necessary to use the scouts in order to kcej) the prescribed distance 
behind the 3rd liattalion. b'arlv on this morning, Captain Cater 
joined the ist Battalion with C Company. The advance, which was 
500 meters in the rear of the 3rd Battalion, was with companies 
1) and A in the lead and companies B and C about 400 meters in the 
rear. The companies advanced in line of platoon colunms. 

The onl\- work the battalion had to do that morning was to keep 
the ijrescribed distance behind the 3rd llattalion and to send back 
a message every half hour, all of which was accurately and promptly 
done. 

Lieutenant Ridlon was the scout leader and Captain Morgan was 
charged with the direction of the lines. The Battalion advanced 
through the fog with nothing of great interest to report until about 
noon, when it halted in the rear of the 137th Infantry. The men took 
advantage of what little cover there was, as the position was being- 
shelled at intervals and during this halt a good many men were 
wounded. 

Major Clarke organized the battalion to be readv for the advance 



24 




B COMPANY 

and finally word came to him that the One Hundred Thirty-ninth was 
to go through the One Hundred Thirty-seventh and attack. The 
Third Battalion led the way through, the First was behind it 500 
meters and in the rear was the 2nd Battalion. All three battalions 
suffered more or less from the enemy barrage and from the front, 
rifle fire was beginning to liven up. Enemy machine guns were very 
active, and this, with the heavy artillery made a terrific din. Finally 
the combined fire of the opposition halted the 3rd Battalion and it 
dug in for the night. Major Stepp had been killed, Rieger was with 
his outfit, and Ristine had gone back to headquarters for orders and 
conference, so Clarke found himself in command of the regiment. 
Captain Nesbitt with his machine guns protected the right flank, and 
men from the ist Battalion were placed as outposts along the entire 
left flank. Machine gun fire on the forward elements of the 3rd Bat- 
talion was kept up all night and a German patrol which tried to pene- 
trate the lines during the night was repulsed. 

While Major Clarke had every confidence in the judgement of 
Lieutenant Davidson, who had placed the outposts, he thought it 
the part of wisdom to inspect them himself. Major Clarke's orderly 
and all the ofiicers in his P. C. were asleep, so he went forward alone, 
got lost a time or two, and finally ran into a bunch of wounded sol- 
diers who were trying to devise a way to get to the rear. He put them 
in a protected place, sent for assistance for them and after inspecting 
the outposts and wandering about for a while in the darkness and 
rain decided he had better go 1)ack to his own Battalion Post of Com- 
mand. He thinks he fell over a hundred men in trving to find that

P. C. He finally reached it and soon was asleep but was almost im- 
mediately awakened by a runner who said the Regimental Adjutant 
wanted to know if he would not come at once to the regimental P. C, 
as he was expecting the Germans to attack on our left. No attack 
came and about dawn Ristine returned. He gave out information 
concerning the advance and placed the ist Battalion in the line with 
the Third. Major Clarke went back to his battalion to give the 
necessary orders for the advance. In getting into position the air 
seemed alive with machine gun bullets. Everybody walked close to 
the ground. A sudden machine gun burst pinned Major Williamson 
and Major Clarke to the ground. Williamson was hit on the left side, 
but not badlv hurt. Clarke was hit four times with machine gun 
bullets, once in the left wrist, once in the left leg and two minor 
wounds in the right leg below the knee. 1 lis left leg was useless, but 
he remained where he was for some time, thinking it might be pos- 
sible for him to go forward again when the time came. 

Tie crawled a little to the rear to get into the path of the litter 
bearers and he thought he would be able to stay throughout the day, 
but Colonel Ristine saw him and ordered that he be taken to the rear. 
So ended his part in the Meuse-Argonne Battle. He was in the hos- 
pital until November 25, then returned to duty, but had to go back to 
the hospital again as he was not yet fit. He finally rejoined the regi- 
ment December 21, ic)i8. 

On September 2/, the second day of the battle, the attack was to 
be resumed at 5 130 a.m. by the 70th Brigade which had been in sup- 
port on the first dav. Tt was not necessary for the One Hundred

Thirty-ninth to effect a passage of Hnes in order to be in position to 
attack as it had done this the day before in front of Varennes. The 
One Hundred Thirty-ninth attacked with two battalions in the front 
line and one in support. A machine gun company was attached to 
each of the front line battalions. Ristine did not order his men for- 
ward until 6:30 a.m. He had tried to get the time delayed until 8:30 
when there would be a chance of getting" artillery support. He felt 
sure that there would be no artillery support at 5 :30, as promised. 
The artillery had not opened at 6:30. Ristine sent a message to 
Brigade Headquarters telling them he was ready to attack but that 
there was no artillery fire. He got no reply to this message, so he 
attacked without any help from the big guns. The German artillery 
and machine guns had been well placed so as to sweep the territory 
over which the One Hundred Thirty-ninth had to advance. The regi- 
ment was able to go ahead but it was paying a very heavy price. 

In writing of a battle, authors are too jirone to accept the easy 
way of referring to an outfit by the name of the commander. In 
every instance the present writer knows of, the fights have been 
won and the credit should go to the enlisted men. If the text says, 
"Jones moved forward 500 3'ards," it is hoped the reader will know 
that it was the doughboys who did it. They carried the rifles, thev 
forced back the enemy and they took the wounds. A proper his- 
tory, to be complete, would have the names of the individual sol- 
diers and would recite their deeds, but we are not now far enough 
advanced to do that. 

It is useless to repeat that the men of the 139th Infantry

fought with superlative fortitude and daring, but it would be true 
to write that at the end of every day's story. 

Ristine balanced the cost in men against the profit of ground 
gained and decided he was in a losing business, so he ordered the 
regiment to halt and told the men to dig in. He notified brigade head- 
quarters that he could advance no further without artillery support. 
That was about lO o'clock in the morning of September 27. 

About II a.m. word was brought forward of tanks in the rear. 
Ristine sent messages to the officers of the tanks commanding them 
to come forward with all speed. They came and he placed them on 
his right wing, formed the infantry behind them and ordered the ad- 
vance to be resumed. Artillery and anti-tank fire was so heavy that 
it drove the tanks from the field. This left the right of the 139th 
Regiment's line well ahead of the left. The troops dug in again, 
and held fast. 

Our artillerv was beginning to open and Ristine sent word to 
Brigade Headquarters that he could move forward if he had a 30 
minute destructive fire on Charpentry and Baulny and a barrage in 
front of that part of his line which was east of the road. He received 
no reply to this message, so he pulled his right back to straighten the 
line and again ordered the men to dig" in. He called a meeting of 
battalion and company commanders and this meeting was in session 
at 5 p.m. when he received an order to attack at 5 130 p.m. Ristine 
sent his officers scurrying back to their commands. 

This order had been inspired by a sharp message General Traub 
had received from General Pershing. This order read as follows :

He expects the 35th Division to move forward. He is 

not satisfied with the Division being stopped by machine 

gun nests here and there. He expects the division to move 

forward now in accordance with orders. 

Lieutenant Cosgrove and Captain Brown, Regimental Adjutant, 
ah^eady were dead in that day's fighting. Both were daring and bril- 
Hant fighters. The casualties among the enlisted men had been 
heavy, but the regiment came out of its fox holes at 5:30 and went 
ahead with a rush. They guided to the left and got a heavy fire from 
machine guns and artillery, but they went ahead cleaning up ma- 
chine gun nests as they went and before they stopped both Charpen- 
try and Baulny had been taken. They had broken through the Ger- 
man line which had stopped them twice already that day. 

Lieutenant Axline of E Company was killed as he was taking 
his platoon through a passage in the wire northwest of Charpentry. 
A machine gun bullet hit him in chest. He covered the wound with 
his hand and stood by until the entire detachment was out of the 
wire and going ahead. He then fell behind, crawled into a shell hole 
and died. 

When the attacking troops finally stopped, Rieger's battalion lay 
in the edge of Montrebeau Wood and the regiment had to its credit 
the capture that evening of Charpentry, Baulny and the Chaudron 
Farm. One must study the map and take into account the difficulties 
of the terrain fully to understand the work the 139th Infantry had

done in the first two days of this l)attle. Defenses and strong' points 
which had an evil fame all along the battle line had fallen before the 
dash and impetuous courage of Ristine's men. On the night of Sep- 
tember 2y the regiment lay well beyond Baulny. Captain Haftle, 
commanding the 3rd Battalion, dug in there. Rieger was in Montre- 
bean Wood and the ist Battalion was not far from Chaudron Farm. 

Lieut, Carlisle Wilson who was afterward promoted to Captain 
was wounded when the regiment was attacking Charpentry. He was 
operating with his company as a protection for the left flank and was 
near Montblainville. He had crossed the River Aire and driven out 
the enemy machine gunners who threatened the success of the attack. 
Montblainville was in the 28th Division's sector, but thev were far 
behind and Wilson cleaned up the neighborhood of Montblainville 
effectively. He died of his wounds. No braver man than Wilson 
fought in the Argonne. His fighting spirit was shown early on the 
football field where he became Captain of the University of Missouri 
team. 

Thinking that he could prevent mixing up of the troops, Ristine 
had taken charge of his own skirmish line, and pressed ahead too 
rapidly. Finally only Lieutenant McCord accompanied him, and they 
became separated in crossing a small stream. McCord guided to the 
left and, unable to find his colonel, joined a party which penetrated 
far into the enemy territory near the bank of the river. 

Ristine went ahead. He believed the American front line was 
still in front of him and seeing some soldiers through the dusk climb-

ing" a hill across the valley made this belief stronger. They were the 
retreating Germans, but he was not close enough to them to dis- 
tinguish their uniforms. Indeed our troops had stopped and there 
was nothing ahead of Ristine but the Germans. He reached a hill 
just south of the valley which leads to Exermont and found himself 
c[uite near one of these lines of troops. "What outfit is this?" he 
yelled through the gathering darkness, but got no answer. He drew 
nearer and found it was a German outfit in retreat. 

The Colonel was up against it. What he knew of the terrain he 
had learned from the map and it liad now grown so dark that he 
could not put this knowledge to any use. He had lost his flash light, 
and probably would not have dared to examine his map even if he 
had had the light. He was in a quandary. He surely did not want to 
be surrounded by the enemy and he had a natural reluctance to retire 
from a retreating foe. With him at this time were a lieutenant and 
five privates of the 137th Infantry, whom he had run across on the 
field after leaving McCord. The seven men went to the crest of the 
hill and crawled into a big new shell hole. They organized it by dig- 
ging the soft earth out of the bottom and putting it around the rim 
for a barricade. The)' had made four automatic ritle positions in the 
sides of the hole, when a German machine gun began to shoot across 
their position. Soon it appeared that two guns were crossing their 
fire over the shell hole. 

After a period of waiting, Ristine decided the detachment could 
do better as individuals and gave each man permission to look out 
for himself. Ristine explained to them his idea, which was to crawl 



32 




C COMPANY 

out of the hole towards the Oerman Hues some Joo yards, and then 
to try and find the way back to the American Hnes. He was sure 
that a direct retreat was cut off. Ristine set out alone. He crawled 
for a long distance towards the enemy, then turned and walked 
parallel to the position he supposed the lines to occupy. 

By this time it was very dark. Ristine could see that the Ger- 
mans were in retreat. The American artillery was putting a slight 
interdiction fire on the territory and its results were to keep the Ger- 
mans from grouping. This helped Ristine as there were many other 
individual soldiers wandering about besides himself. The night was 
verv dark and a cold, hard rain was falling. The Colonel was wet 
and hungry. The Germans were in retreat and, naturally, virtually 
all of the movement was backwards but there was the incidental 
movement of men forward and up and down the lines. At a dug out 
apparently deserted Ristine found a German ofificer's kit all laid out 
ready to be packed. The American Colonel had no overcoat, so he 
took the one which belonged to the German officer and put it on. 
Then as he walked on he figured out a course of action which he 
thought would render him least open to suspicion. This plan was to 
act as nearly as possible as he supposed a German officer moving about 
would act under similar circumstances, ^^l^enever he came near a 
working party or near to anyone else who would be likely to observe 
him, he pretended to be very busy and in a great hurry. He bustled 
by soldiers as if some very important affair had been entrusted to 
him. He figured that he was not likely to be discovered in the in- 
tense darkness, if he did not make an open attempt to reach the 



33 



iiiiiiiiiiffliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiy 




C COMPANY 

American lines. Whenever he came to a road he proceeded along it 
as if he knew it thoroughly and knew exactly where he was going. 
Whenever he found himself comparatively alone, he stopped and en- 
deavored to orient himself, in order to lind tlie road for home, hut 
whenever anyone aj^proached, he immediately became very busy 
again. 

He had decided that if he were challenged and found he was un- 
able to bluff his way through gruffly, as he assumed a Cierman officer 
would do, he would shoot the challenger and run for it toward the 
American lines. He reasoned that since he was an American Col- 
onel, caught inside the German line, he would rather take his chances 
on fighting his way out than to be taken prisoner. He might have 
got away with this if he had been challenged. During the more than 
24 hours he was inside the German lines, he carried his Colt's auto- 
matic pistol in his hand, usually inside his overcoat pocket. 

Dawn found him still within the German lines. Throughout 
the night he found no opportunity to return to his own people. He 
had wandered almost to Chateau Chehery and he saw the retreating 
enenly blowing up ammunition dumps near Fleville. From the light 
of these flames he could see other ammunition dumps near by and he 
noted these to be located on the map when he might have the oppor- 
tunity of seeing it again. Just before daylight, Ristine found himself 
near a field through which ran an untrimmed hedge. He crawled 
under the rows of the hedge and crept stealthily forward until he 
found a place from which he could watch both sides. Then he made 
himself as comfortable as he could to spend the day. 



34 




C COMPANY 

There he la\' all day long. Along the road from Apreniont, which 
he could see on his right, a German battery of four cannon came 
and took position not far from the hedge. After that several ma- 
chine gunners also took position in the open field. They made em- 
placements in little fox holes and stuck branches of hedge brush up 
in front of them. Ristine had an excellent opportunity that day to 
observe the work of German artillery and machine guns. Twice dur- 
ing the day he heard sounds from the American lines which were full 
of meaning for him. He heard the tanks enter Baulny and he heard 
the American guns open. This showed him the artillery had come 
forward. Some of the shells fell near to Ristine and while the Ger- 
man artillery was not hurt, one shell got a fair hit on a machine 
gun emplacement. 

When night came he had a good idea of his position and as soon 
as it was thoroughly dark he crawled out of the hedge and started 
down the main National Fleville highway. He passed several artil- 
lery emplacements and an occasional soldier, but was never chal- 
lenged. The German overcoat doubtless served him well. Finally he 
saw the River Aire, but between him and the river was a heavy band 
of barbed wire. In climbing over it some of the rotten posts broke, 
once a machine gun traversed across the top of the wire and another 
time flares were sent up. Each time he lay still and finally crossed 
the wire and slipped down into the river. It was too deep to wade 
and he was afraid to try to swim it. Although an athlete, he was 
much weakened as he had had no sleep for yi hours and very little 
food. After three attempts to wade, he finally found a tree which had

been felled across the river, walked over it and so reached a brigade 
headquarters of the 28th Division. 

On the morning of September 28, Ristine was in the German 
lines, but that was unknown to the other officers of the regiment. 
Captain Brown, Regimental Adjutant, was dead, many other officers 
were wounded and the Regimental Headquarters was virtually wiped 
out. Every batallion had suffered heavily, the 3rd battalion was 
commanded by a Lieutenant, the ist Battalion was commanded by 
a Captain, but he had only one officer for each company. Rieger still 
held his second battalion together. 

Through the tangle of Alontrebeau Wood Rieger pushed slowlv 
ahead. There was much enemy infantry and many machine gunners, 
but despite the oppositions he finally reached the upper edge of the 
wood, where he dug in at night. In Montrebeau Wood, Colonel 
Americus Mitchell appeared, looking for the 139th Regiment which 
he was to command. A cold rain was falling, it was verv dark, the 
enemy was sullenly shelling the wood and Colonel Mitchell was un- 
able to locate any elements of his command. 

It should be remembered that throughout its part of the Ar- 
gonne battle, the 139th Infantry, except for a few hours, did not 
move, maneuver or fight as a regimental unit. Here was a unit, 
battalion company, platoon or squad, under its special commander 
doing a certain duty; yonder was another unit doing another dutv. 
The men fought just as gallantly and effectively on the night of

the 27th and all through the day of the 28th as they did at any 
other time, and the losses were very heavy. 

It was on September 28 that Lieutenant Everett B. Hosier met 
his death. This officer was new to the regiment, but had made a very 
good impression. He had been an athlete and sportsman in Phila- 
delphia when the United States entered the war. He was one of the 
organizers of the Philadelphia District Lawn Tennis Association and 
was considered probablv the best racket plaver in Philadelphia. He 
had applied for admission to the first officers' training camp, passed 
the physical examination, but was not called. He then applied for 
admission to the Fort Oglethorpe training camp but was not called 
there. Soon afterward he was drafted. In January, i<^i8, he was 
selected for the third officers' training camp at Camp Gordon, passed 
satisfactorily and was sent to France in Mav. Julv 18 he was com- 
missioned Second Lieutenant and transferred from the 82nd Division 
to the 35th Division. 

On this day he was leading parts of two companies of the 2nd 
Battalion near the edge of Montrebeau Wood. The Germans, filter- 
ing forward threatened to surround him. He ordered his men to fall 
back for safety, but before this was possible for many of them, the 
detachment was surrounded. The last seen of Hosier he was fight- 
ing desperately with a few of his men. He was entirely surrounded 
by the Germans. He and this little band did not surrender, but died 
fighting. He was at first listed as missing, but his grave was found 
afterwards about 700 yards north of Chaudron Farm. 

Captain Dale was killed on September 2S. He was in command

m^ of September 28 and this movement brought heavy enemy artil- 
len- fire upon the advanced Hue of the One Hundred Thirty-ninth. 
Captain Dale was hit bv a 77 shell. His fox hole was about fifteen 
feet from Rieger's. The explosion threw dirt over Rieger and know- 
incr that the shell had hit nearbv he called to Dale but got no answer. 
Rieger went over to Dale's fox hole and found him dead 

At Divisional Headquarters, acting as Divisional Mail oHicer,

B Companies by direction of Colonel Ristine. Lieutenant iNIcCord 
on September 29 was wounded and sent to the rear. On the morning 
of September 30 Major Macdonald. still capable and efficient, turned 
over A and B Companies to Captain Williamson, connnanding the 
1st Battalion of the One Hundred Thirty-ninth, and under orders of 
Colonel Mitchell took command of the 2nd Battalion of the 137th 
Infantry and formed a line just in the rear of that line held bv Stav- 
ton and the Engineers. He stayed with the One Hundred Thirty- 
seventh until the regiment was withdrawn, when he was returned to 
the One Hundred Thirty-ninth where he took command of his old bat- 
talion. Despite his 61 years. Major Macdonald endured great physi- 
cal hardships and the pounding and wear of battle better than some of 
the younger men and when he came home it was as a Lieutenant- 
Colonel, a promotion won on the field. 

On the morning of September 26, the morning which, as one 
officer -grimly said, was "to separate the men from the boys," Cap- 
tain Heiny was one of many men who wondered how he was going 
to stand the strain. It Avas a dubious question with him. Fourdays 
later, after he had taken two severe wounds and had kept fighting 
with the forward elements at all times and had voluntarily gone for- 
ward through an enemy barrage to get information, there was not 
much doubt in any body else's mind as to whether he was a soldier. 

The morning of September 2<) dawned dark and grav on the 



40 




D COMPANY 

Argonne battle field. A cold rain was falling steadily, and the hungry 
troops were soaked and chilled. The dreary untended field which lay 
between the northern edge of Montrebeau Wood and the town of 
Exermont was most desolate and repelling. 

The 35th Division was ordered to take Exermont and push as 
far beyond as it could. The Corps' orders transmitted to General 
Traub said specifically the troops must advance w-ithout regard to 
the division on either side. The division's front already made a 
salient in the enemy's line and further pushing forward of this salient 
meant that the advancing troops w^ould receive fire not only from 
their front, but from both flanks. 

The division was a division in name only now. Brigade and 
Division Headquarters had almost ceased to function. The effectives 
in charge of the direction of the troops were the regimental, battalion 
and company organizations. What semblance there was to the 70th 
Brigade Headquarters was only what had been willed to it by Gen- 
eral Martin, a master organizer, when he was relieved just before the 
battle. 

The 35th Division was, in effect, a number of small units, com- 
panies, battalions and regiments, waging little individual wars 
against a well organized and w^ell directed enemy. The higher com- 
mand, which should have held together and directed the eff'orts of 
these smaller bodies as a unit, had lost its cohesion and had ceased to 
be a factor. 

Exermont never was much of a town and the intense desire for 
it in the high command of the American Armv was because of its 



41 



iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin^ 




D COMPANY 

position and ihe fact that it had l)ecn strongly fortified by the Ger- 
mans. It blocked the way. For its further defense the enemy had 
brought into it since the beginning of the Argonne Battle, large num- 
l)ers of veteran machine gunners. ' These were in the prepared em- 
])lacements in the town and scattered over the open tield between 
Montrebeau Wood and the Exerniont Ravine. 

The first to make the attempt on Exermont was Major Kalloch 
with about 125 men, mostly of the 137th Infantry. Kalloch was 
beaten back and his command was virtually destroyed. He left his 
dead and wounded on the field. After him came Major James Rieger, 
a devout man, who was not in the custom of spending his Sunday 
mornings in such a scene. His battalion had sulTered heavy losses, 
for it had been through all the fighting at Vauquois Hill, the Bois 
de Rossignol, at the taking of Charpentry, Baulny and Chaudron 
Farm and the Montrebeau \Vood. 'fhose unwieldy French names 
for places were hardlv known to us then, but they will live in history 
as long as Missourians and Kansans read of martial deeds and revere 
their soldier dead. The little dots on the map of France were that 
day passing from the obscurity of rural villages, to the blaze of flame 
in the Midlands of America thousands of miles across the sea. 

Rieger formed the remnants of his battalion behind Montrebeau 
Wood, intending to pass through it for the sake of the shelter it 
would give against enemy fire, and to advance directly from its upper 
edge towards Exermont. Colonel Nuttman, commanding the brigade 
met him just as he was entering the wood and insisted that Exermont 
lay "that way," pointing due east. Rieger assured his superior of- 



iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii 



42 



iiiiiiiiiiiimnnniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinm^ 




D COMPANY 

ficer that he was wrong. Nuttman insisted that he was right and 
gave a direct command to move in the direction indicated. Rieger 
was thereby compelled to pass to the right of Montrebeau Wood and 
thus expose his command to the enemy fire for a much longer space 
of time. Naturally he got many additional casualties because of this. 

It was broad daylight when he turned the last protecting corner 
of Montrebeau Wood and faced across the open ground. The field 
ahead of them was thick with machine gunners, placed there during 
the night, rifle fire from every protection was brought to bear on the 
attacking troops, artillery from three sides pounded them. Rieger's 
men had been without warm food for four days. They were chilled 
with the rain and they were extremely tired because of the constant 
work of battle. 

So heavy was the fire from the front that men were seen to turn 
their faces from it while still advancing, as one will do in a gale of 
wind. 

The command was '"Forward." There was no barrage and if 
General Berry's artillery was aiding the infantry, the infantry did 
not know it. That was the General Berry who spent so much time at 
Camp Doniphan trying to get rid of Major Rieger, and this was the 
Major Rieger that stayed. Both had reached the day of supreme 
trial. 

Across the open field the worn infantr\- went, the losses growing 
heavier every minute. Across the little valley of Exermont and the 
creek. Fairly against the town they charged and they took it, grimly 
killing the enemv machine gunners at their guns, and bombing the

dug outs with awful thoroughness. Through the town they passed 
and to the heights heyond. There they dug a hne and held it. and 
there the 2nd BattaUon, the 139th Infantry and the 35th Division 
reached the height of their glory. 

Captain McQueen was badly wounded in Exermont ; Lieutenant 
McManigal was shot through the chest and with Private Joe Simpich 
lay three days without care or attention. This story has been told in 
detail in the first chapter of "From Vauguois Hill to Exermont." 

Of all of McManigal's detachment in the desperate move on 
Exermont, Leroy Moss, who did as much fighting as anyone else. 
was the only man who was not either killed or wounded. 

Not far behind Rieger came Delaplane with part of the One 
Hundred Fortieth, making firm and sure the American occupation of 
Exermont. 

On the field behind these advanced units, in Montrebeau Wood, 
about Chaiidron Farm and on both sides of it. the troops were suffer- 
ing as the result of confused orders and loss of capable officers. On 
our right. Colonel Walker commanding the 69th Rrigade had ordered 
two advances and a retirement. Ristine, again with his own division, 
reached that part of the field as the troops were coming back. He 
tried in vain to stop what elements he met. declaring he had later 
orders from high authority that the whole division was to advance 
and support the forward troops. Fie was too late, but if there had 
been another like him the farthest advance might have been held.

patrol from Colonel ]\Iitchell reached Exerniont about the same time. 
Delaplane evacuated the town and fell back slowly and in order. Be- 
hind him came Rieger's outfit fighting constantly over the ground 
they gave up. On three sides of him the enemy pressed forward with 
infantry and automatic riflemen. Rieger's splendid rear guard action 
brought his outfit safely back to the Engineer's line. 

An act of merit and justice which followed was the promotion 
of Rieger for gallantry in action. He was always loved by his men 
for his unfailing kindness and humanity, and this reward of his 
bravery and skill in battle thrilled every heart. 

The widespread belief that the armistice would end the war for 
the I3gth Infantry was soon disproved. The winter of 1918-19 in the 
Commercy area was a most dreary one. The army command thought 
it would try to make soldiers out of the men. The riddled ranks were 
filled with replacements and beautiful military prol)lems were worked 
out in the rain and mud. 

The men were as a rule in unhealed billets, hay lofts and the 
like, and there was the chronic shortage of clothings. Colds and 
pneumonia grew alarmingly and Major Smith and Col. Ristine 
wrestled unceasingly with the Divisional command to have the drill 
hours reduced and to give the men a chance to keep their health. 

Each man was entitled to a razor. The requisition for them had 
been sent in at Doniphan, and they finally were received, after many 
urgings, after the armistice. Though the men were cold, wet and for 
long periods unbathed, they must be clean shaven.

The Regimental Sanitary Officer was Captain Earl Ristine, a 
brother of the Colonel, and the excellent condition in point of sanita- 
tion the regiment had is the highest testimonial to his efficiency. He 
had been a director of playgrounds in Chicago before the war and was 
especially well qualified for the task of directing regimental athletics. 

Chaplain Collins doubtless was an excellent Chaplain, but the 
regiment remembers him as a soldier. He had been the Regimental 
Chaplain of the old 3rd Kansas and was with the One Hundred 
Thirty-ninth throughout all its activities. He would have been just 
as successful as a connnander of a company. He always found his 
duties led him to the front line. 

Major Smith was the Regimental Surgeon. He had served 
through the Spanish American War as a surgeon with Funston and 
throughout his service with the One Hundred Thirty-ninth he ex- 
posed himself with reckless daring whenever he could work more 
effectively with the wounded. Much of the efficiency of the 139th In- 
fantry is due to him and the manner in which he handled the medical 
and sanitary business of the regiment. 

All that Conmiercy area period is best forgotten. No outfit was 
gladder than the 139th Infantry when the order came to pack up and 
move to Le i\Ians. They sailed for home proved soldiers of the 
greatest war, they took their parades and marched under the welcom- 
ing banners with the same step that they had crossed the Hinden- 
burg line, and the fields of the Chaudron Farm. They got out of the 
armv as quickly as they could and went home to mother and hot 
biscuits.

They do nut like to talk about it yet. There really is not nuich 
of it that makes good telling at the supper table. Many a mother 
wonders why Jimmie who used to be such a talker, is so silent on the 
topic of the Great War. She must wait a while. Tt is too new. Let 
the memories begin to mellow and ripen, and she will hear some 
mighty tall tales of the things her l)ov did in France.

General Orde 



1. The Regimental Commander takes great pride and pleasure in citing 
preciation of the courage and devotion to duty of the following named officers and enlisted men for gal- 
lantry under fire during the six days battle from September 26th to October 1st, 1918. 

On the morning of September 26, Ueutenant Colonel James E. Rieger, 138th Infantry (then Major, 
139th Infantry) with his battalion, made the frontal attack on the heights of Vauquois, capturing this 
almost impregnable position in forty minutes. Reorganizing his battalion he pushed forward and on the 
evening of September 27th, without regard for his own safety, personally led the charge into Charpentiy 
with such speed and dash that a large body of the enemy were cut oflf and captured. This advance re- 
quired wading the Aire River, passing through an artillery barrage and heavy machine gun fire. He par- 
ticipated in every advance, encouraging the men by words and deeds. He, with his battalion, captured 
the foremost point reached by the Division. Unexcelled in soldierly qualities, admired and respected by 
his fellow officers, and loved by the men with whom he fought, this officer has set a high example of lead- 
ership. 

Lieutenant Colonel Clay C. Macdonald was formerly Division Postmaster. During the Argonne 
offensive there were many casualties of Field and other officers. Lieutenant Colonel Macdonald (then 
Major) came forward and asked to be assigned to the firing line. He was assigned to command a bat- 
talion of the 137th Infantry. He took charge with courage and determination, successfully accomplished 
a difficult mission of reorganizing this battalion and holding the left end of the Divisional sector. This 
officer is sixty-one years of age, and has been cited in Division orders for his work in the Argonne offensive. 

Major Henry D. Smith, Regimental Surgeon. 139th Infantry: all through the Argonne offen- 
sive Major Smith fearlessly exposed himself to heavy enemy artillery and machine gun fire in order 
to search out and relieve the suffering of the wounded men. On September 29th and 30th, he established 
his first aid station in Baulny, which was under severe artillery fire, and maintained it there, in order that 
he might the sooner give first aid to the wounded. During a strong enemy counter-attack when it seemed 
probable that the enemy would retake Baulny, and some special units were packing up preparatory to going 
to the rear. Major Smith said that he was going to stick there and care for those wounded men if they were 
all captured. This officer was recommended for promotion. 

Calm and cool under fire, Major Samuel G. Clarke, 139th Infantry, commanding the First Bat- 
talion, set a splendid example to his men. Several times when his battalion was held up by machine gun 
fire. Major Clarke went forward in advance of his lines to better direct the movement of his men. On 
September 27 while performing this highly important and very dangerous work he was severely wounded.

In the drive commencing September 26, 1st Sergeant Harry R. Kelsey, Company E (deceased) 
was at all times at the side of the company commander. In the afternoon of September 27, while under 
very heavy shell tire, Sergeant Kelsey volunteered to carry a vry important message from the company 
P. C, which was located about 100 yards to the right of the road leading north into Charpentry and 
about 1,000 yards south of Charpentry, to the battalion P. C, about 800 yards to the left of the company 
P. C. With no regard for his own safety, knowing the message was of the utmost importance and time 
valuable, he took the most direct route by which he must go through a very heavy barrage and cross the 
road swept by machine gun fire. 1st Sergeant Kelsey was killed while performing this great service. 

1st Sergeant John J. Kirkpatrick, Co. M, on Sept^ 
exposed himself to enemy machine gun and rifle fire fron 
against which he led a bombing attack. On September

great valor and courage thereby setting an example to all his men, against a German machine gun nest 
and line of skirmishers, forcing them to retire. 

Sergeant Wayne C. Newcomb, Co. M, (deceased) was painfully wounded while leading his platoon 
against a German machine gun nest, but refused to go back to the hospital, remaining in command of his 
platoon and thereby setting a splendid example of courage to his men. 

Corporal Albeit E. Suess (wounded and missing) Co. M, on September 27 volunteered to carry 
ammunition through intense machine gun fire and a heavy bombardment, to the front lines near Charpentry, 
This ammunition was sorely needed. He later joined the fight, in which he was severely wounded. 

Corporal Winfield F. Shahan, Co. jNI, as regimental liaison N. C. O., did on September 26, 27 
and 28, with the greatest of courage and bravery constantly expose himself to heavy enemy machine gun 
and shell fire in order to help maintain liaison between the different companies and regimental head- 
quarters. 'Later, on September 29, near Exermont, single-handed, he attacked a German machine gun 
nest, killing a number of Germans and while taking one prisoner was fired upon by another German 
machine gun and attacked by his prisoner. He was wounded in the right arm and being unable to use 
his rifle drew his pistol and killed the German attacking him, thereby making his escape.

no regard for his own safety, he refused to leave the field and remained administering first aid to the 
wounded men of liis own organization and men of other organizations who were near. He continued his

the devotion to duty and wonderful accomplishment of the officers and men of the Supply Company. In 
the Argonne fight on September 28, this company took 22 wagon loads of rations to the front lines. The 
roads over which they must pass were heavily shelled by the enemy. Nineteen of their horses were killed 
enroute and five wagon tongues shot off from their wagons. The wagons had to be ])ushed by hand 
the latter part of the way, but they would not quit, and the 22 wagons containing seven days' rations for 
4,000 men were delivered to Baulny, and were used to feed practically the entire Division f

high devotion to duty and calmness was an inspiration to his men. They all loved bin 
eagerly whenever there was a message to deliver or 
killed during the advance on Exermont. 

The above named members of this detachment all displayed a very high degree of bravery, and it 
is impossible to single out one, or a few, as being the bravest and most fearless. Hesitation never 
entered the minds of these men when there was a duty to be performed, though such duty called them 
through the heaviest of artillery and machine gun fire. After the regiment had suffered so many casual- 
lies and the various companies had become badly disorganized, these men took automatic rifles and rifles 
from the dead and wounded, and assisted in strengthening the outpost positions on the right of Montre- 
beau Woods, on the evening of September 29, in a very heroic manner.

■i^h his most he 



this histor 



:littering of te 



m ideal, 
victory 



The commander of this fortress is happy to 
sergeants, corporals and privates, who come and take garrison 
to them his feelings of high sympathy and best companionship. 

He enjoys himself with the coming of these new companions 
purpose and valor, full of clear energy and spirit. 

The glorious President, Woodrow VVilson, irresistible champion 
put in the scales with his powerful hand the highest force of liberty 
of the allied over the savage Huns. 

The United States with their wonderful mind of organization, their colossal abilities, their huge 
supplies, succeeded the wonder of gathering armies like by enchantment, crossing the Atlantic with 
innumerous battalions and throwing them in the battle field of liberty. It is on that everlasting stream 
we placed our final triumph, our hope of finishing the utter defeat of the savage enemy whom we are 
struggling against for more than four years. 

The fruitful and generous blood of the American soldiers already spread in the front of Chateau 
Thierry, Saint Mihiel, Verdun and Argonne, the splendid success of the Yanks obtained and that history 
had already been engraved on bronze tablets, are a certain warranty of which we can hope from them 
in future days. 

The same generous passions, the same love of peace built on right, the same respect of the will 
of nations fill us up to the same degree. Our fraternity in arms is strengthened by the community of 
ideal and mutual esteem. 

Hurrah for American people!

not a member of the raiding party, voluntarily left his combat gronp, and, passing through the enemy 
barrage of artillery and machine gun tire, went to the rescue of a private soldier, who, wounded and 
crippled, had become entangled in the wire. Successful in reaching the wounded man, he himself was 
fatally wounded while assisting him to cover. 

This brave and unselfish act, which ended a most promising career, is only an incident in this 
great world's struggle, but it serves to show that in the desperate hour of need the officer and enlisted 
man fight shoulder to shoulder in the brotherhood of arms.

appreciation of the courage and devotion to duty of the officers and men of the following units under 
my command during the six days' battle against the picked troops of the enemy, from September 26th 
to October Ist. 1918: 

Headquarters 35th Division, 

Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment, 69th Infantry Brigade, 

The 137th Infantry Regiment, 

The 138th Infantry Regiment, 

Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment, 70th Infantry Brigade,

2. The task of making of record the individual acts of courage and devotion to dutv in the face 
of a most deadly artillery and machine gun fire is an impossible one, for many of them will never he 
known. No greater praise nor commendation to the officers and men of the units mentioned above can 
be bestowed than to say that they have performed the tasks set for them, in a spirit and manner worthy 
of the best ideals and traditions of the American Army. Vou have met and defeated picked divisions 
of the enemy. You never failed to respond cheerfully to whatever difficult and dangerous tasks may 
have been let for you to perform. You have accomplished these tasks with a fearlessness, courage and 
disregard of danger and hardship which fully justifies the pride which those at home have in vou

Office of Battalion Surgeon, 

American E. F., Jan. S, 1919. 
From: John F. Coffinan, Jr., Bn. Surgeon, 2nd Bn. 139th Inf. 

To: Division Surgeon. 

Subject: History of Sanitary Detachment, 2nd Bn. 139th Inf. during Argonne Meuse Battle, Sept. 25th 
to Oct. 2nd, 1918. 

September 25th. 1918. Battalion was located in woods about 12 kilometers South-east of Vauquois. 
At 10:00 A.M. our Battalion Commander notified us that in a few hours we were to take part in an offen- 
sive against one of the German's strongest positions and that we should make necessary preparation and 
hold ourselves in readiness. 

Immediately we had 12 men to report to us from each Company, making a total of 48 men, to 
act as litter bearers. There being no arm bands for these men, we quickly improvised one for each man 
out of an old blue blanket, stating specifically to them what their duties were to be and what was expected 
cf them, at the same time going over various ways of administering first aid. 

We then took the personnel of each Company separately and talked to them for one hour, going 
over the methods of checking hemorrhage and administering first aid. This was done to freshen their 
memories, as thev had been given lectures along these lines numerous times. In talking to them we 
would draw an imaginary picture of every conceivable wound and then have them apply first aid, first on 
themselves and then on others, all the time assuring them of the necessity of keeping a good cool head. 
This all paid a large dividend, as was proven by the number of men that were wounded and reported to 
Aid Station with their wounds dressed in fine shape, either by themselves or by a companion laying close 
thereby, requiring only the necessity of evacuation. We then took our enlisted personnel for one hour, 
having them adjust various splints and administer first aid to various imaginary wounds, equipping all but 
two of them with two shell dressing cases (improvised by using empty gas mask covers) containing 50 
dressings. The other two were carrying 100 doses of Anti-Tetanic Serum, all that was available at the 
time. We then assigned two of our men to each of the Companies, instructing them of their duties and 
positions. 

At 4:00 P.M. we received an order to move at 6:00 P.M. and take up our position which was 
just back of the front line trenches, one kilometer South of Vauquois in an old orchard. Right here we 
wish to state that there was not a single man in this Battalion but what knew this Battle was coming off 
in a very few hours and we are pleased to state that not a single one of them presented himself at the 
Infirmary with any form of sickness. 

At 6:00 P.M. sharp we swung down the road in column of squads, marching in this formation 
for six kilometers, then in column of twos for four kilometers and into our position at 2:00 A.M. Sept. 
25th, there waiting to perform the duties that we had so faithfully trained for during 14 long months. 
While laying there it started to rain and mist and a heavy fog started forming. At 4:00 A.M. we were 
informed bv our Major that there was a dug-out about 100 meters to our right in the trench which we 
could use as a First Aid Station, so there we established our first Station. At this station we evacuated 
only one casualty, a man from the 129th M.G.Bn., wounded in the neck by a piece nf Bosche shell. At 
3:00 A.M. our barrage started and at 5:30 A.M. the Battalion went over the top. Here we wish to state 
that we figured it a poor policy to have only one Aid Station to the Battalion, as a direct hit by artillery 
would put us all out of commission, thereby leaving our Battalion in a bad way, so we there and then re- 
solved to have at least two and some times three stations. 

At 6:15 A.M. we went over the top. strung out behind our Battalion with no man closer to another 
than 20 meters, which was just as far as one could see in the fog. This formation was also necessary, as 
being spread out we could locate casualties. We advanced in this formation for 2 kilometers, only find- 
ing one casualty, that being 1st ht. Malcomb McDonald who had been instantly killed by a burst of machine 
gun bullets. Bv this time, 7:30 A.M.. we had taken Vaquois Hill and prisoners were being brought to 
the rear. We advanced about one-half a kilometer further and were held up for a time as we were then 
right behind our Battalion; here we established two Aid Stations, marked on map as 2A and 2B. 2A was 
established on the South side of a steep hill which was thought to be and also proved to be defalated. 
While we were informed about 11:00 A.M. that there were a great many wounded about 300 meters to 
our right in the woods; on looking around we noticed passing us about 30 German prisoners under guard. 
We explained the circumstances to the guards, stating that we needed litter bearers, and we had no 
trouble in getting these prisoners, after further assuring the guards that they could stay with us and in 
due time have the prisoners returned to them. 

Our Chaplain, one of the most fearless young men we saw during the entire battle, volunteered 
to act as foreman over the Bosche litter squads, so he gave them "about face" and into the woods they

went and in a very short time he had them littering in wounded on improvised litters such as limbs of 
trees with their coats on them, old bunks and blankets. We in turn dressed them and laid them along in 
rows on the ground on the side of the hill, as no better place was available. By 4:00 P.M. we had them 
all out, dressed and fairly comfortable, a total of 59 casualties. We then picked out eight of the most 
severely wounded and had them put on litters by the lioschc, called the two guards and turned the pris- 
oners back to them with orders to litter these eight men to the rear as quick as possible. At 4:30 P.M.

was performed under an almost continual artillery and machine gun fire. 3B was 
ench which had been widened out and made fairly comfortable by Eosche prisoners 
. Aon of our Dentist, Lt. Hine, and his assistant. He also used German prisoners as 
nd from here evacuated 19 casualties. One hour prior to establishing this Aid Station Lt. 
I side of Vaquois Hill and, after following the board walks past large, well con- 
and dug-outs, he noticed a crowd of men through the fog about 30 meters ahead 
:ing able to distinguish who they were, he turned to his assistant. Private Wm. C. Myers, 
who was following him, and asked him if he thought they were Bosche. As the assistant affirmed his 
suspicions, Lt. Hine held up his revolver which he had in his hand, and while trying to make up his 
mind as to exactly what course to pursue, the Germans saw him and all held up their hands and started 
toward him. There were some steps leading up to a trench that led back over the knoll between Lt. Hine 
and the Germans, so he waved to them to go up those steps and counted 32 of them. Falling in behind 
them he took them across the valley and up into the trenches from where he had started that morning, 
turning them over to guards who were returning with other prisoners. 

At 4:30 P.M. we went forward about one kilometer and established Aid Station Number 3 on 
the South slope of a deep ravine. From here we evacuated 21 casualties. Here we had the honor of a 
short visit by Major General Traub, who shook hands with all of us, inquiring as to what organization we 
belonged, stating that he was pleased to see the Doctors so close to the front. At 6:00 P.M. we again 
started forward, going about 2 kilometers without finding any casualties until we caught up with our 
Battalion, which was then digging in for the night on top of a hill. At this time it was dark. Here 
we established Aid Station Number 4. We lay here all night sleeping in shell holes. No casualties during 
the night. At daylight our Battalion advanced about one kilometer and were held up. We then moved 
up to an old cellar and there established Aid Station Number 5 at 7:00 A.M. Sept. 27th. Here we stayed 
until 5:00 P.M. evacuating 34 casualties. At 9:00 A.M. a runner came to us with a statement of several 
wounded men back South of us on the hill, so the Chaplain and I went back and dressed six men that had 
been severely wounded by one shell, procured litter bearers and evacuated them. We then started toward 
the road to get some water in our canteens as we had been told of a spring. We had not gone very far 
until the Bosche started dropping some shells quite close to us, so we dived into a shell hole. It had 
about four inches of water in it. The Chaplain hit the bolitom and I on top of him. Here we lay for 30 
minutes while 75 shells dropped around us, none further than 200 meters and several as close as 15 feet, 
which when they exploded would nearly burst our ear drums, caused by the concussion. While laying 
there I saw a little mouse run around the edge of the shell hole and dart into his hole; believe me, that 
is the only time in my life that I wished to be a mouse. After this had been going on for about 20 min- 
utes I said to the Chaplain: "Do you suppose they are trying to kill a Doctor and Chaplain?" To this 
he was about to agree when I stuck my head over the top and saw 10 tanks coming down the road; these 
beyond question were what was being shot at, but the Bosche were over-shooting and the Chaplain and I 
in our shell hole were the goat. After this had quieted we gave our canteens to one of our men that 
was going past and he took them back to the dressing station with him. We then started back ourselves. 
While walking along I noticed two litter bearers coming along with a man on the litter, also noticed 
blood spurting in the air from the wounded man's shoulder. I ran to them quickly, had them lower the 
litter to the ground and very quickly tore off the dressing and clamped the arteries with two haemostats, 
applied dressing over all and sent him on back. This man proved to be Lt. Col. Dickey. He was at this 
time in very bad shape. We then walked forward to our dressing station again, it then being 11:00 A.M. 
We just got comfortably situated when they started dropping shells around us again, a few of them being 
gas shells. One very large one dropped about 50 feet from us, the gas quickly volatilized and was blown 
directly over us by the wind. I happened to be looking in that direction and saw it coming and yelled 
"gas" and into our masks we went, wearing them for about 15 minutes and it was all over. Lt. H. P. 
Lewis, who was with me, was at this time in a shell hole about 20 feet from me and did not see what was 
coming or did not hear me at first and thereby got a breath of it before he could get in his mask and 
get away. This gave him a severe headache, eyes watered and some vomiting. He then went to the rear, 
the last I saw of him. 

At 5:00 P.M. our Battalion was ordered over the top again under our machine gun barrage. I 
was on high ground and could easily see them go over. Never shall I forget the sight as the men went 
forward against the Bosche artillery and machine gun bullets: the men tipped their heads forward and 
reminded me by their actions of cattle facing a hail storm. Every few yards a man would fall wounded. 
Just as the last Plattoon of our H Company was forming to go over a large shell hit among them. This 
quickly gathered our equipment together and ran down to them and pulled si-x of them into 

id were dressing them when two Bosche air planes swung down from the sky and started 
up the valley firing their machine guns. They wounded nine of our boys in the back, as I 

shortly afterwards, 
here we established an Aid Station in a cement culvert four feet high, 3 feet wide and 30 

rked No. 6 on Map. By this time it was dark, but we managed by the aid of candles to 

L here 42 casualties: would have the wounded littered into the ends of the culvert, dress 
them along the ditches along each side of the road on the ground, as we needed the litters. 
We got an ambulance in a very short time, which worked with us all night. About 10:00 P.M. one of my 
men informed me that there was a dug-out just to the left of us about 200 meters, which was nice and 
dry. As it was raining we moved our Station, No. 7 on Map, there, continuing our work, keeping the 
wounded men in a dry place. Here we stayed working all night until 1:00 P.M. Sept. 28th, evacuating 
65 casualties. 

At 1:00 P.M. we again went forward about 2 kilometers to a place shown as St. Quenteen, just 
South from Baulny about 300 meters. Here we established Aid Station No. 8 in an old mine. We did not 
feel very comfortable here for the first hour as on examining the place we found about 
mite in one of the rooms. As we had a man in our detachment who had had experier 
and one other volunteered to put it in a car and take it away, which they did. We the 
Here we worked all night evacuating 125 casualties, many of them wounded severely an 
were wet to the skin, as it rained the entire night. From here we had splendid ambular 
one every twenty minutes. This was remarkable as at this time we were only about 
hind our front lines. Fully 75 per cent of our casualties up to the time of establisbin

had been caused bv machine gun bullets. From here until we were relieved they were /3 per cent caused 
by fragments of shells. Did not have a casualty during the entire battle caused by shrapnel. 

At 6:00 A.M. Sept. -'9th we a.gain went forward. At the bottom of the hill at Baulny we met 
Major General Traub for the second time, he again inquiring as to who we were and again expressed hiniselt 
as being pleased to see the Doctors so close to the front. On going a few yards further we saw Capt. ^es. 
bitt, Co. A UOth M.G. Bn., and he informed us that his Company had just been badly shelled further up 
along thi'i road so up the road we went dressing 11 casualties and had them littered back to Baulny. 
While going further up the road we had to keep down in a ditch on West side of road which had about 
one foot of water in it. We kcnt one behind the other, about 50 meters between men, as all along here 
the Bosche would snipe at one man with their Austrian 88, named by the men "Whiz Bangs." We finally 
came to a large stone bridge over a little creek that was running like a mill race; this affording some 
protection, we waited one-half an hour standing in water up to our knees. On looking around we iioticed 
up the road and to the right about 200 meters was an old stone house standing against a steep bank. In 
this house we established Aid Station No. 9A at 10:00 A.M. From here we only took care of three casu- 
alties, keeping them with us as it had now become impossible to get out of here on account of artillery 
and machine gun fire. While here we watched the 28th Division take E.xermont, which was one kilometer 
to our left. At 3: JO P.M. the shelling had let up considerably, so we sent two of our men forward with 
instructions to locate an appropriate place for our next Aid Station. These men being gone about fifteen 
minutes came running back with the information that our Infantry was falling back, so we went out 
and looking to our right saw that their information was true. Looking to the North we could see the rea- 
son for it, as there was what looked to us to be a million Bosche coming over a hill about two kilometers 
away. Without further hesitation we took our three casualties on litters and returned to the Aid Station 
at St. Quenteen, which had now been acting as our Regimental Aid Station. 

At 9:00 A.M. I.t. Hine established Aid Station 9B at Baulny. from here evacuating 16 casualties, 
and then returned to St. Ouenteen. At 10:30 A.M. Herbert Stoffle, one of our personnel, who had been 
detailed with G Company and was serving with them on the front line, and who was afterwards captured 
by the Germans, came in and said that he knew where there was a dressing station with lots of wounded, 
but they were being taken care of; but as there were quite a few of these men, thinking that he could be 
of assistance, Lt. Hine with his assistant accompanied him to Chaudron Farm, where he established Aid 
Station No. 10, evacuating altogether 80 casualties. There, after going into a room which was about half 
full of wounded men and asking if there were any who had not been dressed and receiving the reply that 
none of them had been dressed since coming from the field, he began to work. The first two or three he 
dressed and tagged, then to speed up with the dressing, he quit tagging, but soon the litter bearers brought 
them in so fast and as he was the only medical officer there at that time, he could only devote his time 
to placing them. That room, which was about 75 feet long' and 20 feet wide, was filled and another room of 
the same dimensions and yet another and then the sheds and the barn received their portion. During this 
time heavy shelling was going on and the report that the line was falling back necessitated the withdrawal 
of several officers and men. By this means Lt. Hine sent back word of his plight with the urgent request 
for help and for means of evacuation. Two gas attacks were also put over, which necessitated the adjust- 
ing of gas masks for the wounded that had them or could be supplied. 

About ti o'clock of this same day Captain Randall Wilson, who was holding the line out in front and 
who did hold the Germans from entering the dressing station with 75 men after doggedly fighting their 
way twice from the very walls of the place, came and asked how they were getting along. After he found 
out the condition he gave Lt. Hine 50 men to help with the work of evacuating the wounded. With 
these 50 men 37 men were evacuated on litters, improvised litters and riding guns. Then after an actual 
count by Lt. Hine and Lt. John D. Heiny, Regimental Intelligence Officer, who had also been helping 
hold the line and who had helped with the evacuation, there remained 95 litter patients, the walking cases 
having been sent back upon entering the Station. This was at 10:00 P.M. September 29th, 1918. At this 
time Capt. Wilson came in and asked if all had been evacuated. Upon being informed as to the true 
state of affairs Captain Wilson said: "Hell, Doc, you have got to get these men out of here by daylight. 
There are only 25 men between you and the Bosche. The main line has fallen back to the top of the 
hill about a half mile behind you." At twelve o'clock, midnight, after deciding that there was no help 
coming and that something had to be done, Lt. Hine got on a mule, which was in the barn of the farm, 
bare backed and with a rope halter, started back to get help or protection, and if possible both. On his 
way back he met a Lieutenant with a detail of 50 men coming to help, but as they had no litters he 
took them back to the dressing station at Charpentry. There the Doctor in charge gave him 5 litters, but 
that was not sufficient, so Lt. Hine went to the Major in command for help. The Major. Major Gist, said 
that there were no litters and that ambulances could not go past Charpentrv under existing general orders. 
"Give me the order for the ambulances and I will go to the General and get the order removed," said 
Lt. Hine. "We have got to have action and I know the General will let them by." The Major wrote the 
order for the ambulances and the Lieutenant then started to see the General. In the square in front of 
the dressing station he met a boy asking for Major Gist. LTpon finding that perhaps the order was from 
the General and pertained to the evacuation of wounded, Lt. Hine took him to the Major. There he 
found that two ambulances with 7 litters were to be used for this purpose. Loading the litters, 12 in all, 
on the ambulances and starting the detachment of 50 men forward, they all started for the farm. The 
ambulances could not make it up the hill, due to the steepness and the mud, so the 50 men took the 
litters and the ambulances were stationed at the bottom of the hill to carry the wounded from there. 
Knowing that all the wounded could not be gotten out of the way by daylight and that infantry protec- 
tion could not be obtained, Lt. Hine got on his mule and went to the Headquarters of the 129th Field 
Artillery, hoping that protection could be secured from there. The Captain in charge could not get infor- 
mation enough in detail so he wa^ sent to the advance observation post, which was at Balny. There he ran 
into a dug-out full of officers, principally Colonels, and after telling them the situation, with emphasis laid on 
the fact that only 25 men separated the dressing station from the Germans, he was promised a barrage 
across the road in front of the farm with quite heavy shell fire until all of the patients were evacuated. 
But his barrage was to begin at 4:30: it was then 5 minutes of four and Captain Wilson and his 25 men 
w^ere across the road, so Lt. Hine again mounted his mule and made it down the hill to Charpentry and up 
over the hill to the farm in 15 minutes flat and got Captain Wilson and his 25 men back before the bar- 
rage started. Not knowing what else to do. Captain Wilson went back to report that he had withdrawn. 
All followed the men back, but about 100 meters out they met four men with a litter, so Lt. Hine, his 
assistant and the four men with the litter went back and got 3 more wounded men. Thinking that with 
all the protection gone, no means available for evacuation and daylight nearly there about 45 or 50 
wounded men would be found there by the Bosche when they came over looking around next morning. 
When the last of the three men there were being put into the ambulance Captain Wilson had reported and 
had been told that he was not intended to withdraw entirely, so he came up and said that they had to go 
back in. Captain Wilson at that time had only 12 men left, but as they went through the line where the 
Infantry was dug in he took 12 more men. When they took up their position again it was already day- 
light. Captain Wilson promised to hold off the Dutch to the last man and Lt. Hine first went to Major

Smith, his Battalion Medical Commander, and he heljwd him secure Lt. Deal and about a hundred men to 
help. They then went back again to Major Gist and. as he had two ambulances full of litters coming, 
they waited and while waiting Major Gist had a cook fry up a mess pan full of pan-cakes with butter and 
molasses for each, which they will never forget. The litters came and Lt. Deal and Lt. Hine took the 
men and litters up over the hill through one of the worst shellings a hill ever got. A report that about 
a third of the litter bearers were being employed to carry a fellow litter bearer back later came to the 
dressing station. 

It was about 1:00 P.M. September 30th that Captain Wilson came back to find out how near the 
work of evacuation had been completed. There were only tv.'O Americans, who were wounded so badly 
that it was thought they could not live and who were unconscious, and 5 Germans left. Captain Wilson 
said: "Well, I have just seven men left. They are all my men and they will stay on the job to the last 
one." They waited until 3 o'clock and no more litter bearers came, so Lt. Hine again went for litter 
bearers. He went to the Lt. Colonel of the Regiment who replied: "Give him anything he wants." so he 
took SO men and started back to the Farm, but as he started up the hill that had been the "Waterloo" to 
the ambulances the night before he met 4 men carrying a German and he recognized the German as one 
that was in the Dressing Station. He stopped them and asked what was left and they replied that he was 
the last one. It was 5:00 P.M. Sept. 30th. Lt. Hine reported to his Medical Major that the job was com- 
pleted. He was then sent over to Charpentry for ambulances to evacuate dressed men that had accumu- 
lated in the Regimental Dressing Station. No ambulances were to be had so he took a truck, but getting 
only about half way back and getting stuck he went back to wait for an ambulance. At 10:30 no ambu- 
lance had showed up so he went to the Major and the Major said that they had been evacuated. 

Work all over, Lt. Hine reposed on a litter, but one hour of slumber was enough, as he froze 
out. Major Rieger, the Battalion Commander, seeing him up and around invited him to share his bed, 
which was a 14 inch board nailed against the wall and one blanket. This they both occupied until 
3:30 P.M. Oct. 1st when an orderly brought word to the Major that they were being relieved. 

Then came a three days march from the lines, and being nearly overcome from dysentery, bron- 
chitis, diarrhoea and a slight attack of gas, Lt. Hine was evacuated to a hospital. 

Now, going back to the remainder of the Detachment: At 5:00 P.M., Sept. 29th, we left St. 
Quenteen, as there was plenty of help there, going back South one kilometer and there establishing Aid 
Station No. 11 at the same place where we had Aid Station No. 7. On arriving we found a.bout 40 men 
laying asleep and on questioning them we found they represented nearly every unit in the Division and 
that they had become lost from their organizations. We put them in charge of a Sergeant and instructed 
him to take them up to the front and attach themselves to some fighting unit, as they were needed badly. 
Only about one-half of them had guns, but there were plenty of them laying around that had been left 
by men whom we had evacuated the day before, also plenty of ammunition. So we soon had them all 
equipped and off they went without hesitating. The spirit of the men at all times was something wonder- 
ful; on numerous occasions we would find small groups of men lost from their organizations and on ex- 
plaining to them that they should attach themselves to the first unit they found, they would cheerfully go 
forward and do so. All they wanted was just some one to suggest what to do and they were always found 
ready and willing. At no time did we see a ntan going to the rear unless it was to perform a specific 
duty that required going there. We did not evacuate a single medical case during the entire battle. We 
were not bothered by a single malingerer. One peculiar incident while here was that a young man was 
brought in on a litter with a machine gun wound in left arm and left leg and while dressing his wounds 
I noticed that his skin felt c|uite hot and I said to him: "Young man, do you feel as though you had 
some fever, or do you feeljbad any other way?" He replied: "Doctor, my throat has seemed a little sore 
for a couple of days." On examination I found a typical diphtheritic membrane over each tonsil and onto 
the uvula. I said to him: "Why didn't you report to a Doctor?" He replied: "I was not very sick; be- 
sides I wanted to stay here in the drive with the rest of the boys, and I was afraid if I saw a Doctor he 
would send me back to a hospital." This young man sent me word from a hospital in Southern France a 
few days ago stating that he was real well. From this Station we evacuated this time 16 casualties. 

At 8:00 A.M. Sept. 30th we again went forward about one and one-half kilometers and estab- 
lished Aid Station No. 13 in a dug-out between Charpentry and Balny, evacuating from here 14 casual- 
ties. We stayed here until 4:30 P.M. Oct. 1st when our Battalion was relieved. We marched South about 
7 kilometers, arriving there about 11:00 A.M.. where we pitched tents and stayed for the night. We 
here established Station No. 13, evacuating 3 casualties, caused by mustard gas burns received during the 
battle. 

Strength of Battalion when we took up our position on September 26th 2:00 A.M. was 22 Officers 
and 962 Enlisted Men. 

Strength of Battalion on October 1st at 1:00 P.M. was 5 Officers and 382 Enlisted Men.
